TICKETS:

To ensure the events are accessible to everyone (and thanks to our incredible partners) we are asking for a 'pay what you can' for each final. If you want an exclusive networking lunch, we do have to charge. All funds raised go into ensuring we can continue running the event and reach more early stage founders for 2024 and beyond! To book your ticket, visit here.

What to expect:

Live pitching, interactive Q&As, hilarious hosts and a unique experience, challenging the stereotype of what business awards ‘should’ be like. Leave feeling inspired, motivated and a phone full of meaningful new contacts. Charlotte Windebank will be your host for the day with guest hosts
